At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 127 It’s such a huge rebellion
"Hurry, Master, His Majesty is here, welcome him quickly." Tang Yongqin came running and shouted, panting heavily.

"Ah? Wait for a moment, and I'll pick you up right away." Lu Er got up and ran away.

"Alas, your majesty is in a hurry, and you need to watch the cannon again, how to change clothes..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Er had already run away without a trace.

"What a sin!" Compared to being disheveled, not welcoming the emperor was undoubtedly more serious. Tang Yongqin stamped his feet and ran out the door.

When Zhao Shi arrived, the generals and supervisors were already waiting outside the door.

After some courtesy, Zhao Shi entered the door and asked, "How about the artillery?"

Chen Nan replied: "I am incompetent. I have only cast one door and it is still being polished."

"Take me to see it." Zhao Shi ordered.

When walking inside, Zhao Shi asked: "Is Lu Er polishing the cannon?"

At this time, the casting process is not up to par, and the cast items are not smooth enough and must be carefully polished.

Use an iron file first, then sandpaper. When sanding, be careful not to have uneven thickness. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is not easy.

"Yes." Chen Nan said: "Master Lu works day and night, and stays in the workshop for food and lodging. It's really hard work."

"With this skill, someone who will serve as a prisoner can be made a marquis!" Zhao Shi said.

"Ah?" After everyone was shocked, they immediately bowed down and said, "Thank you for your grace, I will do my best."

To be granted the title of Marquis... is it worthy of someone who shows off his craftsmanship?However, the golden words are definitely not false.

But the King of War...not to mention a Marquis, even a Duke is worthy.

Zhao Shi said: "You have not seen its power and do not know its power, but you must know that artillery will eventually dominate the world."

"I will obey the holy edict." Everyone bowed again.

When we arrived at the workshop, we saw an empty cannon barrel, just like the scene in Chen Nan's head.

What about people?

I just showed you my merits, but you let go. Do you know the consequences of bullying the emperor?
"Your Majesty." Tang Yongqin introduced his master: "The front wall of this cannon is four-tenths of an inch thick, the rear wall is one and a half times thicker, the inner diameter is three inches, and it is six feet and five inches long. The total weight is two thousand eight hundred kilograms."

The Huomen and Wangshan already exist, as well as the structure for mounting wheels. Now they are placed on the stone platform, and they look very handsome.

Of course, once the cannon is made, you still have to be able to use it.

This is the number one weapon in the sky. There is no previous experience. How much gunpowder to use and how far to hit must be tested slowly.

This is what Lu Zili needs to worry about, Chen Nan is only responsible for manufacturing.

At this time, Lv Er rushed over with Blacksmith Duan, bowed down and said: "I am late to pick you up, Your Majesty forgive me."

"It's okay." After signaling the two of them to get up, Zhao Shi asked, "Duan Quelu, has your injury healed?"

Thinking back to when he and Wu Chifei defended the city, they were all seriously injured. Duan Blacksmith recovered quickly and was not disabled. However, Wu Chifei was still good and bad, and he didn't know if he could escape the disaster.

The two came to Wenzhou for treatment and recuperation, and the emperor personally comforted them. Not only did they confer the title of Military Cavalry Lieutenant, but they were also given titles. However, Blacksmith Duan was not interested in fighting and killing, so he came to work as a supervisor.

"Xiao... I have been here for many days." Blacksmith Duan replied.

"It's my fault that I was negligent." Zhao Shi nodded and said, "If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go and find me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Blacksmith Duan was very moved.

After winning over everyone's hearts, Zhao Shi looked at Lu Er again and asked, "Master craftsman is in such a hurry. Is there something urgent?"

This was to give Lu Er an excuse. After all, it was a big or small matter not to greet him. I was afraid that someone would nag him. As long as Lu Er gave him an excuse, even if it was to call the irrelevant Blacksmith Duan, the matter would be over.

"I have something to offer." Lu Er raised the wooden box in his arms above his head.

Li Sanlang took it, opened it and took out the contents. After feeling that there was no danger, he handed it to the emperor.

Zhao Shi took it, played with it carefully for a long time, and laughed loudly: "The Yuan Dynasty has many skilled craftsmen, but I, the great craftsman of the Song Dynasty, are no less skilled. This thing is a testimony!"

Why do you say that?Because the emperor’s hand turned out to be a blunderbuss!
The front loader is made of iron, and it is a big mistake.

The emperor simply couldn't understand how Lu Er could get Suifa Gun out.

"Your Majesty, this is Duan Tie... Duan Quelu made it. I have no merit at all." Lu Er said. "Master Lu has done a great job." Blacksmith Duan said, "If he hadn't risked leaking the secret, I would definitely not have made this thing."

The secret was the operating mechanism of the artillery mechanism. Combined with the principle of thunder explosion, Blacksmith Duan figured out the gun.

"Have you ever..." Zhao Shi turned around and said, "I ordered Yang Shichang to come and take a pound of gunpowder. I will test the power of this thing."

There is no gunpowder, but Duan Blacksmith has prepared some iron pellets.

Zhao Shi looked at it, shook his head and said, "Change the lead shot."

This is not difficult.

While waiting, Zhao Shi asked: "Is this thing easy to make?"

"It's not easy." Blacksmith Duan told the truth.

So far, his first gun barrel has succeeded like a miracle, and the next four have all failed. The selection and carving of flint require a lot of effort.

As for the other components, they cannot be produced with more than 20 to [-] years of craftsmanship. The other components are just exquisite, and the reeds need to be made of good materials.

"Even if everything goes well, it won't take half a month to make this cannon." Blacksmith Duan said.

"There's no rush. You will think about it carefully, understand each process thoroughly, and then train the craftsmen to work together." Zhao Shi did not put any pressure.

Training craftsmen is not something that happens in a day. Three to five years of production is enough to satisfy people. After all, muskets are much more difficult than artillery.

Not a moment later, lead bullets and gunpowder arrived.

Duan Tiejiang said: "The small cannon is made by the minister, and it should be tested by the minister."

"Very good." Zhao followed his advice.

All weapons must be produced with their names and certificates, and Blacksmith Duan's gun testing is also dictated by the system. To enjoy the benefits, you have to take risks, and there is nothing wrong with it.

However, Zhao still instructed him to separate the gunpowder, starting from half a coin, loading from less to more, and changing the shape of the lead shot.

Half the money was like farting. After hearing the sound, I watched the lead bullets fall down, just like a person with a weak kidney peeing on his feet.

At two cents, the lead bullet flew out and fell. At two and a half cents, the lead bullet had no power. At three cents, the lead bullet hit the wall.

For iron armor, three and a half coins, twenty steps, one shot into the soul.

Everyone's eyes were straight.

Yang Shichang and Chen Nan took the lead in bowing down and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the dynasty has gained another powerful weapon!"

"Good!" Zhao Shi praised: "This is the power of a craftsman. I awarded it to Duan Quelu, the uncle of Xi'an County."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Blacksmith Duan thanked him immediately.

Wu Chifei fought to the death to become a baron. If he died, he would probably be able to chase a count. So, what kind of general would he be?Go forge!
Zhao was overjoyed to get a fire-fighting gun by accident, but he did not forget about business.

Things have priorities. As far as the current situation is concerned, the artillery must be in scale earlier, and of course it will be followed by the artillery.

However, the emperor did not have the opportunity to perform in artillery casting, because the casting technology at this time was quite mature. The reason why the finished product had not yet been produced was because it took so long to make the model.

No problem, that's the best. The emperor returned to the palace in a happy mood and with a gun in hand. Before he reached the backyard, Zhao Xiaosan rushed out and shouted: "Brother, do you want to lead the expedition in person?"

Anticipation, excitement... not even the slightest bit of reluctance.

Getting up early to practice martial arts, going to bed late to study, and having three meager meals a day, His Highness Prince Ning had had enough.

When the tyrant goes to war, won't His Highness just be a wanderer?
"Haha." The tyrant grabbed His Highness Prince Ning, slapped him on his buttocks twice, and said, "Come, cry and listen."

Prince Ning curled his lips, holding back tears and shouted: "If you have the ability to fight Kublai Khan, what does it mean to bully a child?"

Zhao Shi touched the gun hanging on his waist and carefully considered Saburo's suggestion.

The best blunderbuss will definitely not be able to influence the overall situation, but it can challenge Kublai Khan to a duel.

bang~
Kublai Khan died, the Mongol Empire fell into pieces, and the Song Dynasty unified the world. The whole drama ended...

"Your Majesty, why are you so cruel?" Yang's voice poured cold water on Zhao Shi.

Wake up, Your Majesty, get over the Queen Mother first, and then think about making an appointment with Kublai Khan.

　That's it, don't wait, I'm sorry, folks.
